I wanted to experience life in Australia. I love agriculture and nature, so I wanted to experience it firsthand. I wanted to spend time that I couldn't experience on a trip and broaden my future life options.

We make natural wine in small commercial quantities at our property in Blackheath using organically grown grapes purchased from Orange, Canowindra, Mudgee and Hilltops. We also farm a leased vineyard of 4 ha, 30 minutes drive from our home. Recently we opened a natural wine bar and wine shop, also in Blackheath.

We are a commercial Certified Organic avocado & kiwifruit farm located on the stunning Comboyne Plateau, 600m above sea level yet only 30km from the coast . The property is 226 acres with our orchards surrounded by native rain forest, abundant bird life & native animals (including a spectacular waterfall and swimming hole). Just 45kms (50 min drive) from Port Macquarie and 30kms (30 min drive) from Wauchope. We are about a 45 mins drive from one of the highest (200m) waterfalls in the southern hemisphere, Ellenborough Falls at Elands. Work includes harvesting, packing, pruning, weeding, spreading hay for mulch, general farm chores - whatever needs doing at the time. WWOOFers need to be fit, healthy and enthusiastic. We are a Bushfire and Flood Recovery Federal Government designated area so can sign off on your 88 Days to qualify for second or third working holiday visas. We have accommodation for up to 3 people in the farm house, or BYO campervan or tent. We offer a healthy mixed diet with mainly organic food. We enjoy sharing good food and learning about different cultures.

On our 5acre rural block in Clear Mountain, we are surrounded by birdsong, wallabies, koalas, and a host of smaller bush critters. Our place is a peaceful blend of bushland and creative space. While not a full-scale farm, we have a small pineapple patch, a few avocado trees, and 500 Silver-Perch fingerlings growing in our dam. Our main environmental focus is native bush management—preserving the natural flora and fauna, particularly for our local koalas. Alongside this, the property includes a working art studio and gallery space.

Currently I'm taking a break from university so that I can explore the world and meet many new people and cultures! Hopefully, I would love to keep connections with hosts or with the people I met even after staying and reunite in the future!

I joined WWOOF through American Institute of Foreign Studies (AIFS) and am interested in learning about life on Australian Organic & Permaculture farms and learning about growing and producing organically.

I enjoy being outdoors and want to learn more about it and how nature works - especially in Australia, where so much is new for me. That's why I want to try WOOFing. I'm also interested in cultural exchange. Although I grew up on a farm with cows, my knowledge about is rather basic. I'm really looking forward to expanding my knowledge of nature and farming.

I would like to join WWOOF because I want to spend time in nature and learn practical skills. After studying and travelling, I’m excited to experience a more hands-on and sustainable way of living. I enjoy being outdoors, helping with daily tasks and learning from others. I hope to meet inspiring people and contribute to something meaningful.

Have a 3-level home in the Perth Hills which is about 35 minutes from the city.  Most of the vegetation is natural and we have garden work to be done. We would prefer person's in their 30's, We have one room for WWOOFer so best for couples or single person. We have a small orchard.

Have a chance to live with local Reconnect with nature To practice and improve my English language skills Although I don’t have professional knowledge yet, I am very interested in dairy farming and agriculture.

I'm interested in organic farming practices and sustainable living. Previously I've WWOOFed in Japan, farming crops like glutinous/white rice, sweet potato, cabbage and persimmon. I enjoy the organic way of life in the farmlands.

I have already done some WWOOFing back in Europe: once for a month in Sweden on a horse-breeding and almost self-sufficient farm, and once for a week in Germany on a cattle-breeding farm. One day I would love to have my own farm, so I’m trying to gain as many different experiences as I can! As I mentioned in my presentation, I’ll be staying in Australia for one year. At the moment, I’m living in Hobart (TAS) while I study at the University of Tasmania, but I really want to travel around and discover all the wonderful and beautiful places this country has to offer 🙂

October-December. Spring is here and it will soon be summer. Activities over the next 3 months: seed sowing in veg beds, potting and planting; weeding the vegetables and harvesting for the table, mulching, preparation; mowing, hedge trimming, some project work to redesign garden areas, general tidying of beds and different garden areas. 10 acres/4 hectares on granite-derived soil, the NE facing land sloping towards a fenced and treed creek. A non commercial 'hobby farm' with no livestock. Vegetable garden beds, reticulated irrigation system, winegrape vines, mature River Red Gum and Yellow Box trees, new plantings of mixed native trees and understorey, sowing and establishment of native grasses. Accommodation in our home which offers guest bedrooms and bathroom in separate part of the house to our living area. Learn vine maintenance, wine making (activity depends on timing), propagation, plant protection. Help with general horticultural maintenance.

I joined WWOOF because I love animals and want to experience farm life up close. I’m excited to learn new skills, help with everyday tasks, and be part of a community that values nature, sustainability, and hard work. WWOOF gives me the perfect opportunity to connect with animals, meet new people, and gain practical experience while exploring Australia.

I see WWOOFing as a chance to learn hands-on skills, connect with people who share a love for the land, and experience simple living with purpose. I’m curious, reliable, and eager to help wherever I can — whether that’s gardening, caring for animals, cooking, or lending a hand with community projects. Back in home and prior to moving to a city, I grow up in a rural small town where my grandparents have a farm I go to every weekend and so I'm excited to use my holiday breaks to be immersed in nature, learn new farm/life skills, help on farm projects and meet new people/lifelong friends!

Note: 88 day 2nd year Visa flood recovery volunteer work offered. Minimum 3 week stay, with first week a trial to make sure you are enjoying the work and fit in. Summerleigh is a family farm in the Macedon Ranges. Jack and I are city escapees and regenerative farmers, inspired by the likes of Alan Savory, Joel Salatin and Charles Massey. Our goal is to improve the ecosystem and soils by integration of livestock, mainly cattle and chickens, to produce healthy, chemical free and nutrient dense food and we hope to soon add a small market garden to supplement our direct to market egg and beef business. We are also in the process of revegetating a sizable wildlife corridor and wetland habitat along the permanent creek in the valley below the homestead and hope to return the gardens around the homestead to their former glory, with an orchard and ornamental flower beds. Please note: work to be done along the creek qualifies as flood recovery and counts towards your 88-day visa renewal. In other words, whatever your passion is…horticulture, agriculture, tree planting, ecological restoration, rewilding, biodynamics, permaculture, holistic management, carpentry, fencing, welding, growing, producing and cooking food, rotational grazing, chicken caravans, we almost certainly have something for you to put your hands, enthusiasm and head to. The homestead is circa 1876 and she is quite a grand old lady, originally built by the Sir Rupert Clarke family for the first owner, John Hurst, esq., in exchange for land in what is now Clarkefield. You will be part of the family with your own room in the homestead and, between us, we speak/understand Italian, Spanish, French, German and Danish/Swedish/Norwegian. We have five dogs, two cats and two budgies, three Icelandic horses, a pony and a pig. Not all in the house!   We love to play tennis after dinner and also have pool that is, sadly, being renovated, so have swims in the waterhole on hot afternoons, a good way to cool off. If any of that sounds at all appealing please do get in touch Regards Lucy & Jack

The area where I live is very suitable for agriculture. I want to study agriculture and start working locally. I want like to study permaculture and organic farming in Australia. And I would also like to learn how to make and sell products.
